Our ancient ancestors grew plants with leaves that were known to be medicinal. They picked leaves off different plants and trees, and used them as remedies for various symptoms -- fever, colds, aches, and muscle pain. &nbsp;This is why they lived to be older than any other on this earth.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I &nbsp;recall that my own grandmother, Rosa, was a medical healer &nbsp;who lived to be 104. I was with her when she died, and I remember embracing her for hours until they removed me. I did not want to let her go. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now Grandma comes into this oppressive mode of darkness and gives me life like you have no idea. She even states that one day soon we shall be free.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When you or family members become ill, the most important thing to do is to drink hot tea, because it comes from the earth. It is a spiritual gift from God. Drink it with a squeeze of lemon juice and nothing else.&nbsp; Pray as you consume the tea, asking God to heal you. For breathing, place Vic’s on the outside edge of your nostrils. Rub the bottom of your feet with Vic’s and wear socks. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In doing this, you will learn of the miraculous gifts given to us by God.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Amor, </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ramsey</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div>Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023268955248068999.post-141489851139333112015-02-09T04:34:00.000-08:002015-02-09T04:34:00.501-08:00Loving Family Spirits on El Dia de Los Muertos<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; How long has it been since we have reflected on that which unites us with our history, culture, ancestors, and families? For how long will society eradicate the true importance of this glorious and special day?&nbsp; Family members who have gone into the realm of the "fleshless," to be in ancient spirituality with all our noble ancestors, await us.&nbsp;</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">Over five hundred years have passed since the time that those who refused to see the truth, rejected the notion of our communing with the spirit world.&nbsp; History accurately and truthfully revealed that friars and Jesuit priests, upon their arrival in our world, immediately studied our ancestors' religious customs, rituals, and beliefs. As these priests experienced astounding revelations, they gradually discovered the power of our ancient spirituality which has forever been the base and foundation of our culture!</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">During this time of religious festivities, one can only imagine the feelings of the religious invaders as they experienced the rejoicing, dancing, and beauty of our rituals flowing through the heart of the land.&nbsp; Such power and beauty disturbed the faith of the friars and Jesuits.&nbsp;</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">Listen closely, for my destiny is to speak the true history.&nbsp; There is a day pertaining to our religious culture, which connects nature, the earth, and heaven.&nbsp; It is a day when we realize the true essence of cosmic visions, which prove that we are truly a part of mother earth, heaven, and the spiritual realm. On that day, the veil that separates the living from the dead is removed, and we are reunited with the loving spirits of our ancestors, forefathers, and deceased family members.&nbsp; It is a day of rejoicing, communing, sharing, praying, fasting, and meditating with our family members who now reside in Ilhuicatlitic, the heavens, because we share our ancestral spirituality on earth.&nbsp; It is a day that truly brings us together with our past It is so religious and spiritually powerful, that even five hundred years ago priests like Sahagun, Torquemada, Molina, Duran, and others realized the power of Teotleco -- the arrival of the gods.&nbsp; They witnessed the spiritual ancestral power granted from the past to the present and future on El Día De Los Muertos.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">History reveals that invaders and society began to taint the meaning of this day with ominous misconceptions, stripping us of our cultural foundation -- the spiritual communing between heaven and earth.&nbsp; The destruction of our cultural beliefs on this day deteriorated to the point that eventually society displaced the importance and value of Teotleco and El Dia De Los Muertos, and made it a day embedded with monsters, goblins and appearances of evil omens.&nbsp; It replaced the day of remembrance of our ancestors, and family members who have transcended into heaven.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">Was it by choice, or ignorance?&nbsp; Do we continue to permit the devious subtle destructive present day society to destroy the truthful and spiritual meaning of this day?&nbsp; The destruction of our cultural knowledge and remembrance of that special time was replaced with a prank filled celebration -- a day now commercially referred to as Halloween.&nbsp; It is now a night spent in the wearing of masks immortalizing pagans, evil omens, celebrities and presidents. They can have their Halloween, and its concepts.&nbsp;</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;">The time has come for us as spiritual people to remove masks of misconceptions and ruses, and behold the glorious days of Teotleco on El Dia de los Muertos, in which we honor our loving family members in heaven. We pray, sing, and acknowledge God’s spiritual gifts that do not change, for the love of our families will always reside in our hearts.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Amor,</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">Ramsey and Family</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.freeramsey.com/">www.freeramsey.com</a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.freeramsey.blogspot.com/">www.freeramsey.blogspot.com</a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.supportramsey.blogspot.com/">www.supportramsey.blogspot.com</a></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div>Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023268955248068999.post-23517207390090787542015-02-09T04:31:00.001-08:002015-02-09T04:31:05.039-08:00Grandmother Rosa and I Prayed for the Healing of Others<div style="border-bottom: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; border: none; mso-element: para-border-div; padding: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in;"> <div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;">Grandmother Rosa was and continues to be God's spiritual healer. I say spiritual because I was so young, yet old enough to understand, stare into her face, and feel her heart when she was asked to heal the sick in the neighborhood. She would prepare her remedies and I was always the one that she would take. I carried her medical bag and she would make sure that I witnessed every step that she took in preparing and giving the healing remedies. Afterwards I would kneel next to her and she would begin praying for a great amount of time. She would tell the patient that my innocence as a child had been God-sent for his/her recovery. Grandmother Rosa would ask me to hold my two hands on the forehead of the person who was ill, and ask God to heal him/her, and I prayed. Now Grandmother Rosa is healing me and praying with me. In my spiritual dreams she prays right beside me. I am not the same man that they unlawfully imprisoned 21 years ago. My experiences with my grandmother, Rosa, have brought my childhood memories back, helping me remember that that I was spiritually blessed from the time of my youth.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;">Amor,</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;">Ramsey</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;"><a href="http://www.freeramsey.com/">www.freeramsey.com</a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;"><a href="http://www.freeramsey.blogspot.com/">www.freeramsey.blogspot.com</a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="border: none; mso-border-bottom-alt: dotted windowtext 3.0pt; mso-padding-alt: 0in 0in 1.0pt 0in; padding: 0in;"><br /></div></div>Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023268955248068999.post-34550655021532711842014-05-04T15:58:00.001-07:002014-05-04T16:01:31.702-07:00<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Celebrating Cinco de Mayo 2014</b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 9.0pt;"><b><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">"Ramsey, my son, it is evident and soon history will reveal to the present and past generations your contributions and sacrifices in the political , cultural and spiritual struggle for truth and justice, to the extent that you sacrificed your freedom, personal interests, family, and happiness."&nbsp; Dr. Salvador Alvarez</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Dr. Andres Guerrero, author and graduate of Harvard School of Divinity, is writing a book on the background, life, and imprisonment of Ramsey Muñiz.

Even as I share these words of spiritual wisdom, I cannot stop tears of sadness and sorrow because at the moment that I heard of his passing, I was reading his recent book, making comments about his thoughts which made an impact on my heart. He spoke with the same voice, knowing the true meaning of oppression, discrimination, racial bias, loneliness, chains, shackles, and a long imprisonment. Those who continue to feel the cold iron and steel doors that shut their hearts and minds can understand. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>I will be with my brother, Nelson Mandela, as I will pray for his journey to heaven, and I ask that after his resting and taking his spiritual position that he come into my heart and soul and give me the courage, pride, love, heart, and soul to become a free man once again and to bring freedom to the masses of humanity. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">To Nelson Mandela I say, “I will always love you for coming into my life when I was in solitary confinement. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>My wife, Irma Muniz, sent me your most famous book -- <u>Long</u> <u>Walk</u> <u>to</u> <u>Freedom</u>.

I came to know hunger, thirst, sadness, loneliness, chains, shackles, darkness, and coldness. At times I wished that I would not be alive anymore on this earth. Yes, I went through all of these changes. They are changes that many human beings on this earth will never experience, and I pray to God that no one ever has to go through what I did.</span><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">For the longest time I was strong. Gradually my strength and desire to stay alive weakened like never before in my life. At times I would ask God to please take my life. It was during one of those days that I was on my knees, chained and shackled, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>not knowing if I was going to survive such inhumane<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>treatment. Even an animal would receive better care than I, and I was a human being. </span></div><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Never will I ever forget that out of nowhere I could hear a voice coming into my soul, conveying for me to stand up, off my knees, and to be thankful to God because I was alive. From that day on I would not only be alive, but I would have pride, discipline, dignity and love, sharing with God and my beloved brother, Jesus Christ, that I would never again display signs of weakness. I would let the world know that I will struggle and fight for freedom to the last day that it takes of my life and the lives of those who join this journey of liberation. </span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I know that it was my beloved brother, Jesus Christ, who came into the cold darkness. I was on my knees feeling sorry for myself because I had been praying and asking Him to come into my heart and soul and He did.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">There is much going on in the world today. At the very end, when all the dust settles, it will all be about spirituality, God, and the different religious beliefs and convictions throughout the world. It is all about God -- the one who created this world.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The time has come for the world to realize that the only way to resolve differences is to first resolve one’s difference with God. After this, everything will be clear, because God does not intend to bring harm or sadness to humanity. He created the world for the purpose of knowing freedom, justice, peace, faith, spirituality and love, love, and more love. </span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The world is afraid to use the term love. They believe that it is a sign of weakness and this is the greatest mistake that we can make. May God forgive the world and may God forgive those who unjustly and unlawfully confined my life for the last 20 years.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Amor, </span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Ramsey Mu<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ñ</span>iz </span></div>Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023268955248068999.post-26674206542063237212013-04-01T05:09:00.003-07:002013-04-01T05:09:22.054-07:00The Resurrection of Jesus Christ and Love of His Mother <span style="font-family: Arial;">In the Book of Mark, which is thought to be the first of the Gospels written, it is written that it was Mary Magdalene, Mary, and Salome who found the stone rolled away.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>It was to Mary Magdalene that the resurrected Jesus Christ first appeared.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>She seemed and was altogether stronger and more stalwart than the 11 remaining disciples (Judas having gone to perhaps by suicide, in grief).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span></span><br /> <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><span style="font-family: Arial;">Women, including Mary and Mary Magdalene, were particularly noted for standing, kneeling, and crying by Jesus Christ during His ordeal on Golgotha.

I asked that they provide me with what they wish for me to share with the world about Cesar Chavez, this famous farm worker, labor leader, and one of the most famous civil rights spiritual activists in our times.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The presence of Cesar Chavez continues to be with us. Hundreds of our people unite to celebrate his life, because he is very much alive. In fact, he is more alive today than he was when he took that journey with Jesus Christ, Gandhi, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Cesar Chavez died on April 23, 1993, and he has been in a very profound resurrection ever since then, only miles away from his birth place in San Luis, Arizona. It is said that over 50,000 people attended his funeral mass in the small town of Delano, California. Many, such as Cardinal Roger M. Mahoney, have declared him as the "21st Century Prophet of the Poor.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></span><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">History also has it recorded that on August 8, 1994, his widow, Helen Chavez, accepted and received the Medal of Freedom conferred posthumously by President Bill Clinton.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></span><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">On December 6, 2006, Cesar Chavez was inducted into the California Hall of Fame.

He shared this one time as we spoke, because he knew in his heart that I also sought freedom, justice, and love for all humanity. We could see in each other’s eyes the respect and the love that we had in each other's hearts, because Jesus Christ was with us. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></span><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I know that Cesar Chavez is with me tonight and every night, giving me strength, faith, courage, dignity, pride and most importantly, sharing the love of Jesus Christ, whose resurrection is celebrated today. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></span><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Cesar knows that I have survived and will continue to survive, because he states that both he and our most beloved brother, Jesus Christ, are with me and all of our brothers and sisters who suffer in this hard, oppressive world.

My most beloved brother, Jesus Christ, was giving His life for the sake of all humanity on this earth, to enable humanity to seek salvation through the blessings of Almighty God. It was for the sake of freedom, justice, forgiveness, family, spirituality, and love. He knew that He had been chosen from the very beginning as He moved through the masses of a humanity that spoke of this great man by the name of Jesus Christ, who had been sent to earth by God. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span>&nbsp;</div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I am amazed of how much He must have suffered nailed alive to the cross by His hands and feet, not having anyone come forward except His loving mother, Mary.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>On her knees, she tried to touch His feet so that He would know that she had never deserted Him and never would. </span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">How He must have felt teaching and sharing His kindness and love, knowing that not one had been present as He suffered on the cross. It is no wonder that He finally looked up to heaven and spoke to God asking, "Why has Thou <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>forsaken me?" </span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Soon after, the heavens opened.

I can only imagine what was going through the mind, heart, and soul of my most beloved brother, Jesus Christ, as He waited to be tried, and sentenced. Today represents the most historical crucifixion of a human being demonstrated to the world. Christ was stripped naked, beaten, tortured without a piece of bread for His hunger or a drop of water for His thirst.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>Without strength left in His beaten body, He was forced to carry the cross.

I spend hours and hours not only in prayer, but seeking what other individuals sought during those historical spiritual times, knowing in their hearts and souls that one day someone on this earth would take the time to read what they witnessed and sought in their hearts. </span><br /> <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The message that I have found and has come from Jesus Christ is a love that keeps coming out so strong and so powerfully that humanity misses it during these most historical spiritual days. It is the blessing and the love of Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">We must take the time and realize that our greatest gift on this earth was she who brought and assisted God in creating us for existence in this life yesterday, today and tomorrow. </span></div><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p><br /> <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">It is not only the trial, the sorrow, the sadness and crucifixion of our most beloved brother Jesus Christ. It is about the greatest gift that God and the entire spiritual world continues to share with us and that the love, the power, and the spirituality of our mothers.</span></div><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span></span><br /> <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">“Mary meets Jesus on the road to Calvary. The Blessed Virgin sets out toward Calvary where she knows that her son is to be crucified. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;&nbsp;</span>Upon the way she meets Him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>What immense sorrow to see Him in this terrible state!! Her gaze meets His, and the abyss of the suffering of Jesus calls upon the abyss of His mother's compassion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>What is there that she would not do for Him! This meeting was at once a source of sorrow and of joy for Jesus.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>Of sorrow, in seeing the deep desolation wherein his suffering state plunged his Mother's soul; of joy, in the thought that his sufferings were to pay the price for all the privileges she had already received and for those yet to be lavished upon her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>Jesus continues his way towards the place of his execution because it is his Father's will. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>Mary is one with him in all that he feels.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>She knows that all things must be accomplished for our salvation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>She takes her share in the sufferings of Jesus in following him as far as Golgotha where she will become Co-Redemptrix.” (Blessed Columba Marmion). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span></span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">The power and the love of our mothers cannot ever be forgotten, for it is the source of all creation and righteousness.

I cannot help but feel the love and the affection and the broken heart of Christ's mother as she was on her knees witnessing what they had done to her Son. Her feelings must have come into my spiritual meditation. Without evening realizing it, I was pouring out tears like you have no idea. I know that I am extremely sensitive to witnessing pain and suffering, because of my continuous suffering for the last 20 years of our lives. In other words, I know how it feels to suffer pain and sorrow and loneliness and to know that mom is suffering because of her illness. I can feel what others cannot or refuse to feel because they do not wish to feel bad about anything in the world except about themselves. That is what your father called selfishness. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>For some reason or another like never ever before, my dreams and my deep meditations pertain to the suffering of Mary and Joseph and those who were so close to Jesus Christ. As they are reaching out to me, I am praying for them to come into my heart and soul, because <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>they suffered greatly knowing that God's Son given to them and the world was in reality crucified alive all for us who continue to live in a world of hatred, jealously, disrespect, and little or no compassion for humanity on this earth. </span></div><br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Amor, </span></div><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">TEZ</span>Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023268955248068999.post-38555402514635072342013-03-23T19:52:00.002-07:002013-03-23T19:52:32.529-07:00Only Your Father Would Use Such Profound Words <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I would give anything to have the power of words that your father possesses. As he communicates with me I stare right into his eyes because I cannot wait for his choice of words in his spiritual communications about mom and the family and you. When he spoke about mom he used the words respect and submission. I would have never thought of using those profound words that describe what we must give to mom as God would have given to us. I know that it is difficult for many to ever even imagine in their minds or hearts that one is in communication with our spirits who are in heaven. For the longest time I personally hesitated to share this with you, but your father insisted that the time had come and that eventually he and others would come into your heart and soul as they have already come into mom's. You cannot imagine how I feel. I cried and cried and I thanked God for giving me the strength, the courage, the endurance, and most important of all the spirituality and love from His heart and soul to mine.</span></div><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p><br /> <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Amor, </span></div><span style="font-family: Arial;">TEZ</span><br /> Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023268955248068999.post-45077327386211920382013-03-23T18:16:00.003-07:002013-03-23T18:16:45.521-07:00I Know in my Heart and Soul That I Have Been Blessed <br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Even though my family and I have suffered for the last 20 years of my life like no others on this earth, I know in my heart and soul that I have been blessed. It is very difficult to describe in the English or Spanish language, but in my heart and soul I can feel strength, courage, pride, dignity. Most of all, I feel such power of spirituality that sometimes i cannot contain myself. I begin crying like a child, thanking God for what he has given me, and for choosing me as His symbol of spiritual consciousness like no other at the present time on this earth.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">There is no question in my heart and soul that the time has come for me to get closer to mom so that I can begin to embrace her. She knows that I have suffered like no other for the last 20 years of our lives and she has witnessed her own daughter suffer, just as I have suffered because our hearts and souls have been apart.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I know deep in my heart that you will begin to feel that spiritual consciousness that I have spoken of and your father presented not too long ago. If you go back to our previous messages, one night he said that I was the "symbol of spiritual consciousness.” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp;</span>Now all of that is getting heavier and heavier like you have no idea. I feel like a kid that wishes to play all day and all night and everyone around here will ask me what I am taking because go 100 miles per hour all day and all night. I immediately answer that I have accepted the wishes and the blessings of God, Jesus Christ, and La Virgen de Guadalupe.</span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Know that we will be free soon and close to each other soon.

I could not stop crying because I know in my heart and soul that God is with us, and that He is going to free us. He is going to take care of mom because He knows that every day, every afternoon, regardless of the pain, I will get on my knees and ask God to please take good care of her and alleviate all of the pain that she suffers at the present time. I thank God for the love of the family and I thank our father, Salvador, and our mother, Hilda, for their presence, providing all the love and the spiritual direction that we must seek and fulfill. You cannot imagine how I feel. I feel like a young kid and I am going 100 miles per hour. It is amazing what God can do. I cried, because I know that He has chosen me after all these years of pain, agony, and suffering. I cry every time I think of my beloved brother, Jesus Christ on that cross. He knows that I love Him very much and that I will never ever abandon Him. </span></div><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Amor, </span></div><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;">TEZ</span>Irma Munizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430482607526765376noreply@blogger.com0
